MCQ
Which of the following cannot be explained by crystal field theory?
- AThe order of spectrochemical series
- BMagnetic properties of transition metal complexes
- CColour of metal complexes
- ✓Stability of metal complexes
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Stability of metal complexes
d
Crystal field theory introduce spectrochemical series based upon the experimental values of $\Delta$ but can't explain it's order. While other three points are explained by $CFT$. Specially when the $CFSE$ increases thermodynamic stability of the complex increases.
